-\fBTcl_EvalTokens\fR differs from \fBTcl_EvalTokensStandard\fR only in
-the return convention used: it returns the result in a new Tcl_Obj.
-The reference count of the value returned as result has been
-incremented, so the caller must
-invoke \fBTcl_DecrRefCount\fR when it is finished with the value.
-If an error or other exception occurs while evaluating the tokens
-(such as a reference to a non-existent variable) then the return value
-is NULL and an error message is left in \fIinterp\fR's result. The use
-of \fBTcl_EvalTokens\fR is deprecated.
